hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to assign a custom routine to a click
event for example? More importantly, is it possible to pass args with these
custom events?

Basically I have 30 buttons that do essentially the same thing. They are
only different depending on which button you press. So if I can create a
custom routine which passes the button number that would be ideal.

Have all of the buttons reference the same sub or routine and have the action
based on the name of the button.

Add this code to the sheet with the buttons on

Option Explicit

Dim mcolEvents As Collection

Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()
Dim cBtnEvents As clsActiveXEvents
Dim shp As Shape

Set mcolEvents = New Collection

For Each shp In Me.Shapes
If shp.Type = msoOLEControlObject Then
If TypeOf shp.OLEFormat.Object.Object Is MSForms.CommandButton
Then
Set cBtnEvents = New clsActiveXEvents
Set cBtnEvents.mButtonGroup = shp.OLEFormat.Object.Object
mcolEvents.Add cBtnEvents
End If
End If
Next

End Sub


and then insert a class module, call it clsActiveXEvents, with this code

Option Explicit

Public WithEvents mButtonGroup As MSForms.CommandButton

Private Sub mButtonGroup_Click()
MsgBox mButtonGroup.Caption & " has been pressed"
End Sub
